There are those who say that the electoral collage should be eliminated. The problems with that aren’t minor. For example, the populations of New York and California are over 2 million more than the lower 25 states populations, combined! To suggest that 2 states have more say in picking the president than the lower 25 is absurd! For those who want to abolish the EC, provide a buffer to prevent this, or at least, minimize it in a way similar to the EC.

We see this problem in many of our states. NYC, Philadelphia, Chicago, Portland, Seattle, and other mega-centers control all the rest of the state, leaving the smaller rural areas, unrepresented. Efforts to split states, create autonomous zones (thus, not needing Congress approval), and such, have very rarely been effective, with the “most recent” being West Virginia during the US Civil War.

Since it began, this site has been keeping a running count, along with the current stats. This includes that, currently, the infection rate is less than 1%, and that of that infected rate, +98% have recovered. In fact, since the beginning, the recovery rate has been between 95% – +99%. With such high recovery rates, it doesn’t sound like an epidemic, let alone pandemic.

From the CDC, a 70-year meta-study: “… from literature published during 1946–July 27, 2018. In pooled analysis, we found no significant reduction in influenza transmission with the use of face masks…”

The above CDC study, as well as by BJO, NEJM, WHO, and many others can be seen here. Some try to debunk it, as not a legit site. However, they never bother to read the articles by CDC, WHO, etc. There are also recalls on masks due to environmental impact, as well as chemicals in the mask being linked to toxins getting in the lungs, as well as nerve damage that’s caused.

Many vaccines include aborted baby parts, and covid is no exception: “COVID-19 Vaccines & Fetal Cell Lines In various stages of vaccine development and manufacturing, some of the COVID-19 vaccines used cells originally isolated from fetal tissue (often referred to as fetal cells), some of which were originally derived from an aborted fetus.” Those will argue that this is yet another reason for religious exemptions.

The mRNA inventor speaking out.

Double standards, with top Dems refusing to take a vaccine because Trump was tied to it. Of course, now that he’s not the President, there’s a sudden 180. Hypocrisy.

There are 81 global studies that conclude natural immunity works best. Remember, only 1% of the global population has it, +99% are mild, and +98% of those with it recover. This is the one by NIH.

These aren’t “conspiracy theories.” This is data by the CDC, NIH, NEJM, Health Canada, and more. All of this has been shown to be ineffective, and even unnecessary. It ends, when The People say enough.

Linux

Of all the (generally) free operating systems, Linux, with it’s multiple distributions (called distros), may be the most well known of the free operating systems. The Chrome OS on Chromebook, as well as Android use the Linux kernal. Linux is the leading operating system on servers, and is the only OS used on TOP500 supercomputers.

As per DistroWatch, listed above, Page Hit Ranking of Distros:

1 MX Linux
2 EndeavourOS
3 Manjaro
4 Mint
5 Pop!_OS
6 Ubuntu
7 Debian
8 Garuda
9 Elementary
10 Fedora

FreeBSD

Next up is FreeBSD, descended from the Berkeley Software Distribution.

Much of FreeBSD’s codebase has become an integral part of other operating systems such as Darwin (the basis for macOS, iOS, iPadOS, watchOS, and tvOS), TrueNAS (an open-source NAS/SAN operating system), and the system software for the PlayStation 3, and PlayStation 4 game consoles.

Darwin

Darwin is an open-source Unix-like operating system first released by Apple Inc. in 2000. It is composed of code derived from NeXTSTEP, BSD, Mach, and other free software projects’ code, as well as code developed by Apple.

PureDarwin is a project to create a bootable operating system image from Apple’s released source code for Darwin. Since the cessation of OpenDarwin and the release of bootable images since Darwin 8.x, it has been increasingly difficult to create a full operating system as many components become closed source. In 2015 the project created a preview release based on Darwin 9 with an X11 GUI, followed by a command-line only 17.4 Beta based on Darwin 17.

The year 2021 saw a lot of trials for people, with lots of challenges to overcome.

This year, 2022 (not 2222!), we hope to make a lot of new changes, to help our members and people come up with solutions to overcome the challenges they face, this year.

As with the prior year, we plan to step up our efforts in fundraisers, not only for ourselves, but for others we network with. We plan to reach out to local publications–public access, colleges, etc–to add our fundraisers to their “community events,” and to connect them with our vendors, for those who wish to offer their own fundraising activities.

There are a wide amount of variances in how many actual innocent people are in jail. Some believe it to be 2 – 3%. However, some statistics believe it to be as high as 25% of the prison populace in the US.

Over the last 40 years, there has been a 500% increase in prison populace. Part of the problems include the failed “War On Drugs,” and the need to scale back sentences for non-violent offenses. Many feel that “mandatory minimum sentences” do more to serve the prison industry itself, as opposed to any real benefits to society on a whole.

A large reason for many innocents to be in jail include a combination of inadequate defense, along with judges and prosecutors that have an agenda against the accused, the accused’s “profile,” or feel the need to “take a strong stance against crime,” and allow that to cloud their objectivity.

From The Innocence Project, in the some of the worst cases, lawyers have:

• slept in the courtroom during trial
• been disbarred shortly after finishing a death penalty case
• failed to investigate alibis
• failed to call or consult experts on forensic issues
• failed to show up for hearings

Lawyers have also been known to not object when a client’s “right to a speedy trial” has been violated, encourage clients to waive that right, and to not fight with their all, especially compared to the prosecution, whenever their clients’ rights are violated, or there are reasons for there to have “reasonable doubt” regarding the case.
